- Garrett Wilkins5 gg faOddity is clearly a well-crafted film, and I can understand why it connected with so many horror fans. Damian Mc Carthy builds an intriguing mystery around a murdered woman, her blind twin sister, and a collection of supposedly cursed objects, with a wooden mannequin that quickly becomes the film's most memorable image. Carolyn Bracken delivers a strong dual performance, and the film benefits from confident direction that knows exactly how much information to withhold at any given moment. There are several genuinely effective sequences throughout, particularly when the story allows the audience's imagination to do more work than the screenplay itself. That said, I found myself appreciating Oddity more than actively enjoying it. The mystery is interesting enough to sustain the runtime, but I never became particularly invested in the characters or the eventual revelations, which left the payoff feeling smaller than the buildup. The film is undoubtedly stylish and technically accomplished, yet it never fully escaped the feeling that I was watching a cleverly constructed puzzle rather than a story I was emotionally engaged with. Horror fans who enjoy restrained supernatural mysteries will likely get more out of it than I did, but while I admired much of the craftsmanship on display, the overall experience left me more impressed than captivated.
- rg94001 novembre 2024Another excellent horror in a year filled with excellent horror movies. I went into this movie totally blind, and so I was able to enjoy the twists and turns of the plot. The first half in particular is very tense and mysterious, and it definitely was getting to me. The movie does rely a bit on jump scares, but it also creates a strong atmosphere that is heightened by the few jumps, leaving the viewer to just guess when the next shoe will drop. As the movie progresses and you start to figure out the secrets behind everything, I think some of the tension and scares get deflated, and I was able to predict some of the larger events. It still feels very fresh, though, and the inevitability of the plot is a function of how well designed and foreshadowed everything is. The use of shadows throughout is great. I constantly looked at the background, trying to parse out any outlines. The acting was pretty good, especially from Carolyn Bracken. A very intriguing movie worth your time.
- Desmond Dale24 gennaio 2025A nice, concise and tight horror that feels fresh and inventive in comparison to the standard beat of Hollywood jump-scare-ridden sequels and spiritual successors. Oddity doesn't have a large cast of characters, nor is there a large variance of scene locations, but I believe its budget constraints seemed to work more in its favor than against it. There's just enough context and background to make the driving action effective but not so much where the film ever feels lulling or redundant. It plagues its viewers with long, study, focused instances of terror rather than quick, vapid jump scares. It's stripped down and lean and its ergonomic cast and set of locations only makes it more claustrophobic and unsettling.
- Razorbitz29 novembre 2025This was an absolute delight. Steeped in horror narrative tradition while playing out in some truly unique ways, Oddity delivers in almost every way it sets out to. To say more would spoil the experience--I do love how it plays with time and expectation. Taut and brief, will leave an impression in even the most seasoned horror vets. A must watch for anyone who wants to see a modern classic horror film.
